Letters / Motivational letter for stipendum hungaricum scholarship, Bsc Biochemical Engineering [2]

Biochemical Engineering at the University of Debrecen

Please I need a thorough and critical review on this essay.
Ever since I was a kid I really fancied been an engineer, maybe it was because my dad was related to the field. But at my high school I realized that my intellectual knowledge is life science. My academic advisor advised me to venture into Biotechnology because I would combine my knowledge and my dream to create better achievements.

After highschool I made many research on the Nigerian universities that Biotechnological courses, but because my country is a developing country there were only few expensive universities that offer only Biomedical Engineering. This rendered me to start looking for other courses and I finally decide to apply for MBBS in Ahmadu Bello University Zaria, but because of the great competition I was offered Human Anatomy instead.

Currently I am studying Human Anatomy but my desire to achieve my dreams forces me to start looking for alternatives and scholarship was the greatest idea. After a thorough research I came across this scholarship and I was delighted to apply.

When I read that the University of Debrecen offers Biochemical Engineering I was sure that it was the course that would aptly suite my appetite. Because Nigeria as a developing country lack much expertise in the field and the rise of the need of Biochemical products is widely increasing.

Studying Biochemical Engineering at the University of Debrecen would render me with the utmost ability to study in a developed community and under advanced lecturers and in advanced facility. Beside interacting with foreign students and professionals from different part of the world will give me experience I would need to be an expert Biochemical Engineer, hence fulfilling my dreams.

Furthermore, after my studies I will return to my country and offer my services by contributing to the development of Biotechnological facilities and joining the companies that are in need of Biochemical Engineer to share my experience and skills.

The only challenge I think I will face in Hungary is the languages barrier between me and the natives who do not speak English , I would try to start learning the language as soon as possible so as I will bring down the barrier.

Thanks for the consideration I will be optimistic to receive a positive response from you.

Scholarship / An underprivileged community - Australian award Scholarship preferred choices [3]

Please be critical because I know I fumbled, and also help me with advice pls.
This is for the Australian award scholarship choice of preferred course and institutions.

An underprivileged community

I grew up in a rather underprivileged community, life standard has always been shabby be it the food, education, health care sector, and lifestyle. This made me develop a certain mindset to create changes in my family and the community. In high school, I was great at biology, and I have an uncanny brain to understand much more than average, this was one of the reasons why my teachers persuaded me to study medicine so that I can get the government Scholarship for Medical students. But because of a bad habit I developed in school which is that I seldom study until the exams, and because I always passed, I did not stop until it came around and gave me a huge blow in my final exams, the results are not up to the criterion for Medicine. I was offered Human anatomy instead, and due to a financial crisis I wasn't able to continue after the second year, so I had to drop out. Dropping out of school was a major devastating period for me but luckily I made it, this period was the time I planned my future and discover my potential, I realized the best form of development I could provide with my talent lies in Biology (Agriculture specifically) and it is incredibly the area most people benefit from in my community, but to improve life standard I need to include technology because this it is the future. After my research, I coined a statement, " Biology is our livelihood, while technology is our future" this gave rise to my ambition of being a Biotechnologist. I decided to venture into Food Science and Biotechnology because this will help solve a lot of practical problems of hunger and reduce the number of nutritional disorders in the community.

After I research which university will be best for me to study Food Science and Biotechnology, Griffith University and
The University of Queensland was my first and second choice respectively. Griffith University School of Science and Environment has received a standing ovation Internationally for producing graduates that focus on tackling food biotechnical problems, and together with the induction of commerce in the course and the specific campus location made it one of the best places for me to actualize my dreams. Also, the University of Queensland is one of the best research institutes that focuses on Food Science and Biotechnology in the world, creating and implementing great improvements in food industries and that is a major attraction to me. These two institutes are by far the best choice for me to study Food Science and Biotechnology in Australia.
